Quite impressive amounts of energy are released from magnetars. We noted the
1998 event in the LWCA journal, The LOWDOWN. I can't place my hands on that
number right now, but as I recall, we reported that one researcher said the
X-rays were strong enough to have sterilized all life from any earth-size
planets within 2000 light-years of the event. Wouldn't want one of those in our
neighbourhood.
